One turn left, the one that's run the turn this article will print, until the first 4 RU certs will be awarded and looks like there's 5 teams in the running for this prize! And for the first turn Steel Reign is knocked off it's perch, congrats Rillion!

One third down as we head into the middle stretch and really anybody can get back in this thing. Even if not a good stretch and you could pick up 4-8 RU certs for your troubles. And besides who isn't sitting there going what the F^%% do I do now with this warrior.... Come on we all have AT LEAST 1 on our team..... What a blast! Oh and congrats Max on the perfect 5-0, it was a long time coming and good to see you do it in honor of our friend!

Oh and hope I got all the managers right off the top of my head here :O

At least one? I've got three now and I'm likely to get a 4th as Fred graduates. Argh, please let me get at least one decent replacement!

It should be fun though at the end of this thing when we get to all compare the various pudliness of the replacement warriors we ran and how they did.

Btw, how much did we end up raising to donate in Rich's honor? Which charity was the lucky recipient?

You should see the pudliness of my entire team. 3 Bashers! 'nuff said.

I am tempted to use the DA this turn, but want to try for the certs. So the turn after this next one I will be DAing one finally in hopes of a better warrior. O'fer since the contest started. Everyone else only has 1 contest loss, without that one warrior I would be sitting purty!

Yeah, you're coming on strong! With my great luck in getting a smokin' replacement for my killed aimer, I'm very happy with my team right now, all five are solid!
Weakest guy is my plunger, the greatest bane for me style-wise, but even he's a pretty good setup physically. I'd never have put a plunger on this team for the contest, but it was created about 3 years ago and sitting inactive in Malcorn until now.
My guys are a little higher in the rankings then I wanted them, but the learns are making me think I'll be there at the end barring anything real unfortunate happening.
Nice work on the Iron Council website, by the way. Who's runnin' it?

Grr...lucky you. Let's just say, one of my better warriors right now is an 11 wit, 9 will warrior.

I would have DA'd him, but there is actually a chance I could get worse!

I think I am saving my DA for when the worst of my puds starts fighting adepts.

I'm going to put the info in a new topic.

Poor VET would have been 2 points higher if the multitude of personals his warriors wrote and HAL confirmed had shown up. He is now a little bit too far down to make a run at it.

But we did learn from it. Rillion taught us to send the personals twice as protection. We now do that in every arena.

I actually love Plungers. They are my favorite style. Early in thier careers I am probably around 80% W/L with them and then as they get higher into the champs etc that drops off. My PL currently is 3-1 in the contest so far. Lost a few before it started though.

As far as the IC website is a combination effort. I run it but it is contributed to by all three of us (i.e. the metal bars are from Ultraist, ideas etc from Jekyll) Still have a long way to go in filling in some of the pages but its getting there.
